PICKING ON THE OLD MAN

Gardiner Passes Away
Fred Assenheimer, aged about
75 years, one of Gardiner's "first
citizens," died Wednesday ln a
Eugene hospital.
Born In Germany, Assenheimer
came to Oregon in 1890 and en
gaged ln farming on Smith river.
sound of the democratic nominating convention, he is pre
paring to make his fourth campaign against the old man.
- The New Deal smear artists have succeeded in painting
Herbert Hoover in lurid colors, and have even added horns,
tans ana noois, upon occasion, lie became the lirst vic
tim of the New Deal refinements of the ancient political art,
and the party in power is keeping the picture freshened up.
The New Dealers have made Hoover the symbol of republi
canism and each campaign has been waged on the same
program upon which the current administration rose to
power. Now the old canvas is being dusted off in the con
vention hall. The party lithographers are smearing on
fresh colof. Speaker after speaker refers to the davs of
1931. They shudder at the depression and the bread lines.
They point with pride to the heroic measures invoked by
President Roosevelt in successfully preventing wholesale
starvation, while carefully skirting the waste of taxpayer
money and the fact that there was little rise in private em
ployment until the country was on the verge of war.
Herbert Hoover had the misfortune to-be president at a
time in the nation's history when no man could have averted
the economic catastrophe that had been generating for many
years. It is our personal opinion that had Hoover remained
in office we would have recovered from the depression much
more quickly than we did and without all the waste and ex
travagance which featured the New Deal. But that is be
side the point.
The thought we have in mind is that it is taking unfair
advantage of an old man to pick on him four times in a row.
The democratic convention is at work at the job again and
seems to have improved with practice.
Cut we doubt very much if, despite the convention's at
tempt to revive the 19!12 issues, they will be able to confine
their campaign this time to Herbert Hoover. There is a
younger and. more aggressive opponent in the race. The
smear artists are not overlooking this fact.
In a "Suggestion for Editorial Comment," contained in a
weekly clip sheet, the democratic national committee asks :
'And to whom would the Roosevelt haters entrust with that
charge?" (The construction of that sentence is theirs, don't
blame us.) "A young man, whose sole claim to eminence was
as a successful county attorney, who was elevated by a politi
cal accident to a governorship, the routine of which office
he has hardly had time to master. Mr. Dewey may be a
genius, to whom experience is unnecessary, statecraft an
inspiration, and national and international wisdom a natal
gift but what evidence do they offer of such precocity?"
We might answer that question with another, which is a
standard form of argument. Our question: What experi
ence did Roosevelt have before he became president?
It our histories are correct, he was a small-time politician,
who, in return for favors, was rewarded with a position as
assistant secretary of the navy under Woodrow Wilson.
After going down to defeat as a running mate with Al
Smith, he became a vice-president of an insurance company.
In the convention of 1932 he was nominated for president
as a compromise candidate between the Smith anil McAdoo
factions.
As governor of New York his principal achievement was
uniiing the stale into debt to the tune of around $75 niil-
ion, but he proved his genius in spending other people's
money much more brilliantly alter being elected president,
where he could work with billions instead of million,;
It would appear that Dewey's background is somewhat
superior lo Roosevelt's.
But, regardless of that, we rather anticipate the vouthful
Dewey will force the campaign to center around himself
ather than permitting rehashing of the old Herbert Hoover
campaign. Ve doubt il the New Deal will be as successful
this time as in the past in selecting the field upon which to
do battle.
